i currently have a switch panel in my car and have the main power wire from the painless panel to the acc. spade terminal on the stock fuse panel. when i turn the ignition key on it gives the panel power, from there i am able to start my car power my fuel pump and fan on. my question is should i run a relay between the the main power wire to the fuse box? or is it okay to run it the way i have it now.

The starter has a relay (the solonoid) and if the fan and fuel pump have seperate relays ? (I hope so) then it's not necessary

I would wire the painless panel direct to the battery or solenoid, with a fuse
in between.

Is that a question ?
A fuse wouldn't hurt, but I'd leave it where it is, if the fan and pump have relays to operate them and the switches are just energizing the relays ? They draw little current
Take power for the relays from the battery, the junction, (behind the battery) or the solonoid
